sandebeach Posted April 23, 2019 #2776 Share Posted April 23, 2019 I called and was able to use the 2nd Summer Sizzle offer to add the 3-day Navigator to our already-booked 4-day Navigator. So a short back-to-back for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, this was the first time that we both used our offers and got 2 rooms. I booked myself and daughter and 2 kids in one room, and my husband booked son-in-law in his room.

Rare John&LaLa Posted April 24, 2019 #2781 Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) Finally got our first snail mail offer from Casino Royale. Summer Sizzle II. 🤣 Edited April 24, 2019 by John&LaLa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fla gang Posted April 24, 2019 #2782 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Got my snail mail offer. BOGO was $600 for an interior 3 day on Mariner. I'll pass. There are other cruises and other dates but never got a buy one Get one offer before. I always thought if they sent a free cabin offer it was for both people in the cabin. I'm learning!

vettecruiser1 Posted April 24, 2019 #2783 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Has anyone got an Royal Up offer on the Comp Cruise. Thinking about rolling the dice(sort of speak) taking one of the interior freebees offered. Right now to upgrade to a balcony I was quoted $800 since I have a 3rd person in the cabin. Thinking maybe I could get it cheaper trying the Royal UP program if it is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JessyCruises Posted April 24, 2019 #2784 Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) Quick question - for a BOGO offer, what happens if you are solo? Is it still free? Thinking of booking two solo cabins instead of combining offers. I would love to get to D+ before my son turns 18 in March and the extra 7 pts would help.

We had paid the upgrade to ocean view and the offer is to obstructed balcony and up to junior suite staterooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a RoyalUp offer to bid on the Royal Suite on the Freedom for this coming Sunday's cruise (we are in an Owner's Suite). The Royal Suite has been sold for months. We got the OS from a comp cruise upgrade and while we got the offer, I did not bid on the RoyalUp offer b/c I knew the RS was long gone. Waste of time.

We got the upgrade for just over $500. It was very enjoyable and included the Suite Lounge, Concierge, daily private breakfast in Chops, semi-private area on the upper pool deck and several other items including theater seating, officer lunch, behind the scenes tours, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsmeagain Posted April 25, 2019 #2791 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Why not do 2 separate cruises vice chasing point? Can see it if your right next to a mile stone or something, but just for the points it would seem you would have more fun on 2 cruises. sorry, we always laugh at point chasers, some people do it all the time to get status. We also feel it rips off the room stewards because it takes away their tip revenue unless you are really staying in separate rooms. If you change to one room, then you should tip that person for 2 people and at least give the empty room person their share because you took the room from inventory and they got nothing from it.

Laura going solo on them because we either live here, or I can't get a dog sitter. Plus she does like a little alone time. Now we do have seperate cabins on upcoming TA because it can be cheaper that way once you pass 340 points. I always check Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first time I have ever even considered booking something just to get points. I already have all of my other offers booked and do not have any more vacation time this year because of it. If I did have more vacation I would. If we do book 2 cabins, they will be getting the tips that are automatically billed. We would book it as adjoining cabins so should have the same steward and they will get the same either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I still have a few days before the offer expires so I will think about it a little more. It would be great to have adjoining cabins. We would have 2 bathrooms and it would almost be like a one bedroom lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that is a nice 2 bedroom suite.😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
